It is used to identify the PVC in frame relay network.
Important features of OSI Layer 3 – network layer.
Determines the path, multiplexing and management of sessions.
List the important characteristics of switches.
The bandwidth is increased and collision domains are created. Also it helps forward traffic using mac address.
Which OSI Layer is used for physical address and network topology?
The Data link layer serves this purpose.
Why do we have to disable CDP?
To save the bandwidth by reducing overhead and to connect to a non cisco router.
Important characteristics of ISDN.
It transports both voice and data, and same as X.25

How many DNS Servers can be specified with one command?
6 DNS Servers can be specified with one command.
What is the use of Cisco IOS Exec command trace?
The “trace [protocol] [destination]” is used to discover routes that packets will travel to their destination hosts. TTL (Time to Live) is used to report destination route information.
What is the use of “IP name-server 255.255.255.255?
It sets the domain name lookup to be a local broadcast.

It is the condition when the router lacks any more buffer space.
ICMP Protocol
It is used to carry messages like destination unreachable, source quench, parameter problem, time exceeded, timestamp, address reply and address request.
Name any two protocols which can exist in the protocol field of an IP Packet.
These are TCP and UDP Protocols.
Which field in the IP Packet has network testing?
The network testing is found in IP Options field.
How does the Internet layer know how to handle an IP Packet?
The type of service tells it.
Identification, flags and frag offset fields of an IP Packet enable differing MTUs by fragmenting datagrams.
What is the use of DDR on Cisco Routers?
It is used for dial on demand routing. DDR provides routing for low volume and periodic traffic.
Cisco router has two types of access lists.

When using access lists, what does a Cisco router check first?
The cisco routers checks whether the packet is routable or bridgeable
How many access lists are allowed per interface?
One Access list per port, per protocol is allowed.
What happens if we set a wildcard mask bit to 0 in cisco routers?
The router checks the corresponding bit value.
